It's random and weird I think he was trying to ya know but not sure Also Sky has this stain above her cere what is it You can kinda see it in the picture above also what gender are they?
August 21, 200817 yr Ya whats going on in this video?It's random and weird I think he was trying to ya know but not sure Yep he was making a move but she didnt let him Also Sky has this stain above her cere what is it She might have a respiratory infection or a vitamin infection - staining above the cere is a good que to take a bird to the vet. also what gender are they? A grey hen and a pied male (just giving a semi educated guess ) Edited August 21, 200817 yr by **Liv**
August 21, 200817 yr Author OkaY, if you like I'll get a better picture for you, also its not on the cere it's self but on her feathers Edited August 21, 200817 yr by KAZ edited your shorcuts AGAIN Jodie
August 21, 200817 yr Okay if you like I'll get a better picture for you, also its not on the cere it's self but on her feathers Yes that staining is normal for a respiratory infection Here is a picture of one of my budgies who caught it this year - you can see the stain. He (among others) went to the vet and had a course of antibiotics. Edited August 21, 200817 yr by KAZ
August 21, 200817 yr Either that or respiratory irritation, as Kaz diagnosed on Merlin. It was because he stated at my mother-in-laws who burned candles & used air freshners dispite of my warnings. So check out your house for toxic fumes, tephon pans being used in the kitchen etc...

It was because he stated at my mother-in-laws who burned candles & used air freshners dispite of my warnings. So check out your house for toxic fumes, tephon pans being used in the kitchen etc... my mom puts this air freshner on the carpets in all the rooms I'm not sure weither in my room but the hallways and I dont use polish in my room because of fumes.
August 21, 200817 yr I think that is what is causing it because even if it is not in the same room it the air flow goes through the whole house, you really need to discuss this with her that it is not safe. Irritation can turn into an infection and respiratory infections are not good.

August 21, 200817 yr there is nothing the vet can do unless you feel that she has a complete behavioral change indicating a respiratory infection. The change needs to be in the house before does get sick, Merlin was okay in a week once I brought him home the streaks of brown above the cere went away. I noticed them and Kaz thank goodness told me what it was so I didn't have her babysit him last time we left out of town we had a pet sitter come over.

August 21, 200817 yr I agree with Elly. I used to use all different splays and cleaners in my house before, but since having the birds inside, i know the dangers it poses for them so now my chemical cupboard is gathering dust and cobwebs Air freshners and carpet cleaners dont do any good anyway. they just mask the oders. To deodorise, use baking soda sprinkled evenly over your carpet, leave over night then vacuum up I use vinegars now instead of disinfectant, and i only use bleach in the toilet with the door shut and the window wide until the fumes vent. I feel so much better without the chemicals - they made me feel sick and I used to clean more thinking that my house was dirty and making me feel sick, so would use more chemicals and then feel sicker. Now that i have taken away the chemicals (except for a few basic ones for really dirty messes) I FEEEL SO MUCH BETTER Good luck

August 21, 200817 yr It's hard when your not in charge of the house. Do you find you get headaches, nausea, dizziness or feelings of anxiety when there are chemicals in the air? If you do, perhaps you could talk to your mum about it. There are so many sites that have heaps of chemical free cleaners etc. If all else fails, you will need to keep your room as fragrance free as possible for your little budgies.

August 22, 200817 yr As Elly said, There is not much the vet can do if its an environmental issue. If the chemicals are strong enough to effect you, imagine how they would be effecting the tiny respiratory system of your budgie. Perhaps ask your mum to ease up on the chemicals as they make YOU feel unwell - She may not do it for your budgie, but i bet she would do it for you
